Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 05/08/2018
"Sanctuary" looks good. The most original thing about the series is its reliance on the green-screen: 90% of the sets are virtual, unheard of for a television series, and while some have the low-detail, wide-angled look of video-game environments.

The monsters are first rate, the virtual sets are very cool, the acting is excellent. Why I was fighting fatigue while watching, I can't say. It was either the martinis from Steve Dunleavy's farewell party - or the plot. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Mike C @RT58210528 Nov 18 I LOVE THIS SHOW omg it would do sooooo well today please bring it back See more David W @Sternhammer 01/04/2024 One of the very best sci-fi series from the period. Very well acted and plotted. Having recently rewatched it, whilst some of the CGI looks a bit ropy by today's standards, the rest is as fresh as the day it was minted. One of my all time favourite shows of recent years. See more Read all reviews
